Outdoor Wire Names Obama – Gun Salesman of the Year | AmmoLand.com — Unintended consequences at work! Now we are armed to the teeth.
In recognition of the unprecedented demand for firearms by nervous consumers, The Outdoor Wire, the nation’s largest daily electronic news service for the outdoor industry, has named President-elect Barack Obama its “Gun Salesman of the Year”. With the selection, Outdoor Wire publisher Jim Shepherd says it is time the firearms industry recognizes the fact that without President-elect Obama’s frightening consumers into action, the firearms industry might be suffering the same sort of business slumps that have befallen the automotive and housing industries…
As a journalist with more than two decades of national newsgathering experience, Shepherd says he’s never seen anything approaching what he calls the “Obama effect”. In fact, Shepherd says, gun and ammunition sales are at such frantic levels that they have surpassed the panic-buying of Y2K or anything during the Clinton years when the first Assault Weapons Ban was passed. This time, he says, concerned consumers are buying guns and ammunition in anticipation of Obama Administration actions to prohibit certain types of firearms.
“In 1999, the fear was that computers would shut down, crippling the world,” Shepherd says, “Those fears were unfounded. I don’t think the fears of an Obama administration banning guns are unfounded. His record speaks for itself. He’s never failed to support an anti-gun measure, despite saying he supports the Second Amendment.”

For someone with an IQ above that of a turnip, the names of the decisions is enough…
#61–Paddy==I doubt you could even state what the issue at play here is. No–reading the cases and providing a quote is the standard to be met.
Go on your own snipe hunt. I’ll give you 10 to One odds if you spent the time, you’d come up with a statement that defeated your own position.
Hence, no wild goose chase for me or anyone else that knows your routine.
Do the work required, or be seen for what you are. C’mon==do better. The rest of your life could still amount to something, even if just for yourself.

You obviously, and predictably, haven’t read many decisions. I’m not going to clog the blog with verbose writings. If you are interested in being educated, read them yourself. Or, stay willfully ignorant…
#63–Paddy-Zero==hah, hah. Proving my point again: the only reason YOU would clog the blog with a verbose posting would be that you couldn’t find the relevant single sentence nor adequately synthesize and restate a paragraph.
Silly man, you wear no clothes.
bobbo, it’s apparent to me that all Paddy-O wants to do is to create enemies with his poorly thought out rants and insults, rather than debate intelligently.
#66–fpp (but really Paddy)==yes, he has more misses than hits. But still, now and then a hit. His input could “actually” be valuable if it had the credibility of a few less misses.
To that end, doing a little more work up front before CONFRONTING someone really is beneficial to all including the original poster. I have thought of posting a critique from time to time and after confirming with the google had to change my thought and sometimes even completely abandon it.
Rather self centered and willfully childish to think others should do your work for you and still expect any respect===especially when more often than not what you post for others to look up is assbackwards.
I want Paddy and others who have CONTEMPT for the truth to continue with their challenging ideas==just get better at it.

I have been assaulted twice by someone with firearms and shot at once and threatened with a shotgun (which I did not see). So, three times.
That’s part of the reason I carry now.
As far as anyone thinking the government (LE) is going to protect you it is idiot to believe that way. It isn’t the job of the government to protect you, just clean up afterwards and sometimes they aren’t worth a shit at doing that either.
It is your right as a human to keep yourself and your family safe.
Oh come on, this happens every time a Democratic president takes power. Gun stores need this kind of economic stimulus.
